Groot Phesantekraal View is a shopping centre located in the town of Durbanville, in the Western Cape, South Africa.[5] It is part of the Groot Phesantekraal Precinct, a mixed-use development on old farmland in the north of the town.[6]
Opened in July 2025, the centre features over 40 stores, spread across 30,000 square meters of retail space.[1]
Phesantekraal opened in July 2025. The mall, situated at the gateway to the Cape Winelands region, is named in accordance with the Groot Phesantekraal farmland on which it is built. The working farm, operated by the Brink family, was opened in 1698. The mall's logo features a pheasant.[7]
Once operational, the centre was expected to draw in customers from surrounding regions, not just consumers residing in the Cape Winelands.[8] The development was also expected to increase local property demand, and contribute towards the establishment of Durbanville as an economic hub within the Western Cape.[9]
The development cost of the centre was approximately R1 billion.[3]
